Eeep! No clue! I’ve only been in Europe and Asia, and I don’t feel like I’ve been enough places to actually say which is my favorite. Also favorite how? To live in? To visit? Politically? 

But yeh, it’s often confusing when you see different people with different levels of dysphoria or how they like. Live with it? It becomes kinda easy to invalidate yourself, because you don’t entirely match what you see around you. But you don’t have to, to be valid or want or able to ID as trans

I dunno how to say this, but it’s totes okay for you to id as trans. I know my sister didn’t feel too comfortable doing so, because she wasn’t as binary or something as me. Also you said you wanted to be a boy, but wasn’t. I mean, wanting to be a boy is enough proof of being trans if you wanna look at it like that. It’s okay to say you are. Aehdunno, I just see a lot of ... the same stuff I see from am I trans posts, just explained away differently.

They all explain it away do. I want to be X, but “insert personal reason for invalidating that want or justifying something”. The kinda want in and of itself is enough and there doesn’t really need to much more reason then that. Everything after the but is usually just blargon jargon n a sorta denial?

Yeah I absolutely see where you’re coming from, but the thing is, I wanted to be a boy when i was a kid bc I didn’t know better if that makes sense? It’s not that I want to be a man now, so I think I’m definitely not binary trans.

I’m relatively comfortable with agender/nonbinary/genderqueer, and I definitely am not cis. 

It’s just that.. I’m not sure why trans doesn’t feel right to me. I’m not sure it’s about invalidating myself, really, and I don’t think it’s that I want to be a Special Third Option, either.

I just feel like... I dunno. I’ve always had a very hard time including myself in a group.. And I feel like the whole debacle about gender dysphoria and transness etc etc. comes down to,... we haven’t defined what it means to be trans very well?

Like I have decided to support the most inclusive interpretation, but there are many different interpretations.

I don’t want to take anything from anyone, i guess? Like it feels like I’m appropriating something if I were to call myself trans.
